Hi, forgive me for sounding like a total noob and flame away if you must, but I haven’t seen this EXACT question asked.
I’ve owned this WDTV LIVE SMP for about a week and love it.
I’ve figured just about everything except the screensaver for some reason.
Would someone please give me a *literal* walkthrough of every single absolute step of how to choose a directory for
“folder photo slideshow” .
Everything I seem to do seems to be the right way, but no matter what I do when I choose my own directory of photos to use as the screensaver on my usb external hdd, all I get is the WD logo instead of my directory of photos.
I know you do the following, go to:
1: setup
2: appearance
3: screensaver style
4: folder photo slideshow
5: (then you get to directory path where you need to choose and I find it and have it listed up on the screen.
Then you have the green “choose here” or “click here to choose” message and I do. Then hit the green check mark.
I wait 5 minutes and all I get is the WD logo for a screensaver still.
There’s got to be something in step 5 I am not getting or doing wrong? Is it just me or others have this problem too?
What is it in step 5 that’s gone awry?
Are there any other problems like the directory needs to be in the root or something special, are the files too big (100k-500k .jpg)
Thank you ahead of time.
